taighe, better the unnntural crab than to be
without a husband— A sarcastic phrase used
when a woman consents to nvarry a diminu-
tive man— the parcan always moves north-
wise, or against the sun's course. [But par-
tan-tuathal is applied to the hermit-crab in
some parts, which would suggest a rich wife
and a husband who was poor, and who, like
the hermit-crab, occupies a house which is
another's.] N.G.P. explains the saying as fol-
lows ; two women lived together, one of whom
stole the other's meal out of her bag, the
sufferer then put a live lob.^iter (crab) m her
bag, and the next time the thief put her hand
in she was caught ; she cried out " tha 'n
Donas 'uad phoca-sa," (the devil 's in your
bag,)," tha," said the other, " 'nuair 'tha
thus' ann," (yes, when you are there.)

The following note is from D.O.
The system of land measure which prevail-
ed in the Western Isles and then took root in
Argyll<*hire, was neither Piobish nor Irish,
but Norse. The unit was the " ounce-" land,
i.e. the extent of land which paid the rent of
an ounce of silver. The word was borrowed
by Uaello, and appears eis nnn«a. The land
term waH unga (e.g. Unganab in North Uist
and in TIree.) It appears In old charters as,
tsroiing, teiroung, &c. This extent was divi-
ded into 20 parts— sometimes into only 18—
■urh parts being onUedpeifjhinn ; hence maay
place-names (e,g. Pennyraore, Peighinnchorn-
ach, &o.) In aome plaof^s the pannyland was
•ubcliridud. On Loohfyuealde we iasut with

Lephinmore. Lepbincorrach, (the big half pen*
nyfand, and the rough half pennyland) ; also
an Fheòirling. (the fartbmgland.) A con-
ventional use of the terra pei'ihtnn is met with
in Skye— the crofting town>;hip of Elgol is
separated by a march dyke from the deer-for-
est . each crofter is responsible for the upkeep
of a specified length of the dyke, and it is call-
ed the peighinn of bis croft . similarly the
part of the shore allotted to each croft for
seaware is called the peighmn of that croft.
The full fractional division of land was carried
out iQ Islay thus :—

Ti»e we of the bagpipe can be traced t^ the

not comparatively modern in connection with
tfcie Highlands, at least to have held a second
place in compai-ison with the harp in the es-
timation of the bulk of tite people, until dur-
ing the last few centuries. The Greek word
sumphwtria, which appears as an Aramic
loan-word in Daniel, iii, 5, is tran.slated "bag-
pipe " by every competent translator. There
la no doubt that the verse relatiag the arri-
val of the prodigal sonVs brother in the New

drew nigh to the house, he heartl bagfpipes and

Any subscribers or others having words or mean-
ings of words that have been omitted during the pro-
gress of this dictionary will greatly oblige the com-
piler by sending the same to him with, when possible,
the context and name of district or book in which
they were met with, as the compilation of the Appen-
dix is now in active progress. Provincialisms and
technical terms Avill be specially welcome.

The section on Proper names is also in preparation
at present, and any help to make it more complete
will be heartily welcomed. It is intended that

special care shall be devoted to this section as no
Gaelic Dictionary has hitherto given more than the
translations of a few of the commonest Christian
names of men and women, and none of them give any
nam as of places at all.

A list of a few books still for sale at bargain prices
will be found inside cover. Those who purchase any
will help on the work of the Dictionary, and secure
bargains for themselves at the same time.

A good account of some of the difficulties under
which this dictionary is being produced appears in
the '^ World's Work " for August. A few copies can
still be had from E. MacDonald, 1/3 each, post free.

all Manx people, and others interested, should send in their names as subscri-

TO SUBSCRIBERS,

Subscribers are particularly requested to keep their
subscriptions paid for three or four Parts of the
Dictionary in advance, as the cost of postage for
sending out invoices of small sums overdue amounts
to a considerable total, that might assist the more
speedy appearance of the parts. No receipt can
be sent by post for sums under 5/- unless stamp

IMPORTANT TO HIGHLANDERS.

The Celtic Monthly:

An Illustrated Magazine for Highlanders.

The Celtic Monthly, which has become so popular among Highlanders afe
home and abroad, was intended to provide our countrymen with a high-class
illustrated magazine at a price wiihin the reach of all. A glance at its pages
will be sufficient to convince you that the promoters have fully attained the object
they had in view. The magazine is also intended to serve as the organ of the
various Clan, County, Gaelic and other Highland Societies throughout the country
and in distant lauds, and by means of reports of meetings, and the publication of
matters of interest to all Highlanders, to keep the scattered members of these
Societies in closer touch with each other.

Life-like Portraits with biographical sketches, of prominent
Highlanders representing the various Societies, are given each month,
which cannot fail to prove of special interest to members. Finely engraved
Plate POPtPaitS of the chiefs of the various clans, and of distinguished
Celts, are also presented with each issue. Articles, stories, poems, &c.,

suitably illUStPated, bearing upon the clans and the Highlands
generally, from the pens of the most competent authoritips, find "a place in
our pages, while special attention is given to eontPibutiCIlS in thC

Gaelic Lang-uage. A Musical column, in whicn ai^pear many

of our most popular Gaelic melodies, is an interesting feature of the
magazine, the music in many cases never having been befure jiriiited.

The Celtic Monthly is the oldest Highland Magazine that has ever
existed, and being published at a. popular price, it is only by receiving the
hearty support of the members of the various Societies, and our countrymen
in all parts of the world, that it can maintain its present high standard.

It is a quarto of twenty pages, double columns.

The Annual SubSCriptioniS 4/- (post free, at home or abroad)

and we trust that you will become a subscriber to the Monthly, and

recommend it to your friends. Volume XV commenced with fhe October

number. vSend for a specimen copy, which will be sent gladly, free of charge.

The Illustrations in the Celtic Monthly are admitted hy the Press to be

among the finest examples of Art Printing in this country.

This high-class Quarterly Eeview, founded in
February, 1904, has already achieved an astonishing
measure of success. If contains over 100 pp. of
text, is beautifully printed and got up, and is brill-
iantly written, one half being in Gaelic and the
other half in English. The best writers in Gaelic
and English^ are employed on its sta:ff, and the
literary status of the magazine is as high as that of
the great English quarterlies. Professor Ehys, of
Oxford University, writing in the Manchester Guar-
diaUy says that Guth na Bliadhna is "as stimulating
a^ a glass of Highland stingo on Ben Mac Dhui^
The rest of the press of Scotland, Ireland, and
England has passed an equally flattering verdict on
this review. Guth na Bliadhna circulates all
over Scotland, and is widely read in Ireland, England,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
It has also a large number of subscribers on th©
Continent of Europe.

propataireachd, s.f. There are two g^mes in
Uist called by thia name.

1. A game like quoits or pitchers. Two
large stones or props are set up on end at a
distance from each other of about 20 yards.
The number of players varies from two to six.
If more than two play, they may do so singly
or in picked sides. The only articles needed
are the props and two flat pieces of stone, as
nearly balanced as possible, wherewitìi to
toss. The game goe.s by points, a certain
number, usually 21, being agreed on as game.
The pointing or scoring, which is not reckon-
ed in the same way anywhere else, is as foll-
ows in Uist. Three points if you knock the
prop down fairly, one point if that pitcher lies
nearer the prop than any other, one point if
your other pitcher lies nearer than any of your
opponent's. Thus, if your two quoits be near-
er the prop than your opponent's two, you
have two points ; if only one is nearer then
you have only one point. In the case of two
players, both stand at the same prop and toss
at the opposite prop endeavouring to hit it
or lie as near to it as possible. In the ease
of sides (say, two on each side) one momber
of each side takes the stones, while the other
two stand at the opposite prop, and toss each
his two quoits to the best of his ability.
These are then in turn tossed towards them
again by those at the other end, the game
counting, as usual, in points.

propataireachd(2),or leagail shaighdear (fel-
ling the soldier.) Game played on the same
principle as skittles. There are two equal si-
des of any number, usually about seven, and
each player has a prop, which he sticks in the
ground just enough to make it stand. Each

})layer is provided with two stones for throw-
ng at the props. The side which wins the
toss then starts to knock as many as possible
of their opponents' props down in this way.
The first man in the row throws his two quoits
trying to knock as many down as he can ; his
neighbour follows, and so on, till all the row
have thrown their quoits. If they knock
down all the opposing props, the game is
theirs ; if not, their opponents start in exact-
ly the same way to knock theirs down. If
they succeed, they win the game ; if not, the
props are set up again and play recommen-
ces.—" Ui.st Games " in Celtic Review, No. tf,.

•, (Sm\,willow-trep) the 18th. letter of the Gaehc
alphabet now in use. It has two souads—
Ist., small like sh, in sheet, when, in the same
syllable, it is preceded or followed by e or i,
as, bns, break ; sèimh, quiet ; sniomh, twinel;
stèidh, foundation. 2nd. broad, like s in stin,
tki/i, in all other situations. Exceptions— is,
am, (pron. its) ; so, this, (pron, sho, and ac-
cordingly spelt sfo in thii work) ; su 1, yon,
(pron. shoot, and accordingly speU slodia this
work.) Sf, when aspirated, is like h in him,
as, shuidh, sat {(pron, hooie) ; shrann, snorted
{hrawn.—aiv as ow in brown.) Before I and
w, sh is almost, if not altogcthor silent, as,
shlanuich, healed ; shuiomh, twisted. S, fol-
lowed by a mute c'>nsonant is never asoirated.
6, whan preceded by the letter t with a hy-

phen is silent, as an t-sluaigh, of the people
(pron. an tlooay.) 'S in eKpreaaioas such as
'* 'se S60 an dame," is sounded as sh.

The slender sound of «Ì3 heard in Arran \a
iseal (iosal, lew,) and treise (treasa, stronger),
esan, (pron. eisean) piseir (pease,) uirsinn
(door-post,) deis (ready,) dilis (faithful,) fail-
eis (shadow.) There is no s sound in Arran
and Kintyre in the combinations rd and rt,
as, bdrd, mart, cairt, &c. In rtl, neither •
nor t Is heard as, ceirtle, fairtlioh. An
seo, an sin, an sioil, are somotim'^s pro-
nounced ant-seo,ant-sin,an t-siod, and some-
times ann a seo, ann a nin, ann a aiod ; and
anu an seo, ann an sin, ann an siod. Ini-
tial sr has no inserted t, as, srath, sruth (not
strath, struth), except strac (to tear) stràc,
(to stroke) and strub (a sp)ut.) Some dia-
lects, on the contrary, have strath, stròn,&c.,
but srac and srub. Before I, followed by a
slender vowel, as, slighe, sleamhuinn, s has
its sh sound, and not, as iu som9 districts,
its Inroad sound.

Druidism. Martin says that Seonaidh is the
name of a water-spirit which the inhabitants
of Lewis used to propitiate by a cup of ale in
the following manner. They came to the
church of St. Mulway, each man carrying his
own provisions. Every family gave a pock of
malt, and the whole was brewed into ale.
One of thfiir number was chosen to wade into
the sea up to his waist, carrying in his hand
a cup filled with ale. When he reached a
proper depth, he stood and cried aloud "Seon-
aidh, I give thee this cup of ale, hoping that
thou wilt be so good as to send us plenty of
seaware for enriching our ground during the

coming year." He then threw the ale into
the sea. This ceremony was performed in the
night-time. On his coming to land, tùey all
repaired to church, where there was a candle
burning on the altar. There they stood stiU
for a time, when,on a signal given, the candle
was put out, and straightway they adjourned
to the fields where the night was spent
mirthfully over the ale. Next morning they
returned to their respective homes, in the be-
lief that they had insured a plentiful crop for
the next season.

All Scotsmen, at Home and Abroad, should
patronize this patriotic publication, and it is a
necessity to all who have friends in Australasia,
being the only medium through which reliable
accounts of all purely Scottish events can be
obtained. Many of the new Scottish Societies
formed in the Commonwealth owe their existence,
in some means, to this paper, which forms such
an excellent medium for exchange of news and
opinions among Scotsmen. News relating to

Scotsmxcn and Scottish Societies is always welcome
to the Editor, as well as the names of new sub-
scribers. The more news and subscribers we
receijVe, the better the value you will get for your
money.

west and westward respectively, that is, down
the course of the streams and valleys, and
shuas and suas, east aiid eastward. Yet,
shios rathad Chataibh, down the way of Suth-
erland, is the usual way of speaking of the
part, of Sutherland on the Moray Firth. These
meanings of sios and suas are now perpetuated
in a curious way in the east of Ross-shire
when speaking English ; e.g. *' go east to the
kitcheu," " go west to the byre," <fec., ex-
pressious that strike anyone as very comical
till he understands how they originated and
that they have no connection with ear and iar.
This does not apply exclusively to Ross-shire.
In Gairloch, shios and shuas mean practi-
cally north and south. South Earradale, for
example, in the south of the parish, is called
Eàrradal shuas and Eàrradal a deas, and
North Earradale is Eàrradal shios and Eàrra-
dal a tuath. Am baile shuas and Am baile
shios at Red Point, furnish another instance
— CR. in Gad. Soc. of Inverness, xxio, 369.
In Perthshire, East, eastward. 2**Future.
S. ud [or s. an siod], down yonder ; a' dol s.,
going down, setting, as the sun ; o shiùbhal s.
agus suas, from goinj down and up ; s. agus
suas, eastward* and loesttvards; " but and ben"

" ben the hoose " (in some places, go west to
the room); cluiunidh aimsir sios ar cliii, future
times shall hear our praise ; cuir a., send east-
ward or downward— Perthshire.

In Sutherland, it is invariably " tha a'
ghaoth à shuas," for westerly wind, and " a'
ghaoth à shios " for easterly wind.

In nil parts, the use of sios and suas is regu-
lated by the direction in which the water
flows, thus, it is customary to say, '* a' dol
.suas gu ceann an loch, "or " suas do 'n eag-
lais," if in a contrary direction to the general
flow of the surrounding streauis.even although
the journey may be dowhill all the way from
where the speaker stands.

The sithich is the most active sprite of High-

ceremonies are still used to baffle the tairies'
power; otherwise, the new-born infant would
be taken ofif to fairy-land, and a withered
brat laid in its stead. They are wantonly mis-
chievous, and have weapons peculiar to them-
selves, which operate no good to those aC
whom they are shot. A clergyman of the kirk,
who wrote concerning fairyland about the
end of the 17th. century, says of these wea-
pons that " they are solid earthy bodies, no-
thing of iron, but much of stone, like to a
yellow soft flint spur, shaped like a barbed
arrow-head, but flung like a dart with great
force—**.

siJtìilean, s.m. Uist game corresponding to the
gameof " cat and bat." The necessaries for
the game are the Speil or Cat, the Driver or
Bat, aud the Ball of worsted or hair. Two
sides of equal numbers are picked, one side
taking tlie first of the batting and the other
ofithe fielding, as they win or lose the toss.

A hole i.s made in the ground with the heel,
and one end of the Speil (a small piece of
wood) is put into it. The ball rests in the hole
on the inner end of the speil. The first batter
strikes the end which protrudes with the dri-
ver, thus sending the ball into the air. While
the ball is in the air, he smites it with all his
power, the object being to drive it as far as
possible from the hole. If any of the oppos-
ing side catch it before it touches the ground
the striker is out, but if no catch is made the
first fielder to reach the bail gives a bowl
(faireag) to the batsman. The latter again
drives the ball as far as possible, and if a
catch be made he is out. If,however,no catch
be made, the first player of the opposing side
to reach the ball, throws the ball into, or as
near as he cau, the hole. This is called" pic-
eadh." If it goes into the hole the player is
out. If not, he measures the length of the
ball from the hole by means of the bat. If it
is not one bat's length he is out, if it is one or
more, he plays on until he is out, when an-
other member of his side comes in in his place.
This continues till one side counts 100, or is
all out, when the opposite side comes in. If
neither side reaches the set number of points,
■whichever scores the hij;hest is said to be the
wmuer. This game is fairly popular still and
is one of the healthiest aud best of Uist games

spidean, s.m. Game which resembles closely
the common game of " pitch and toss," the
difference being that buttons are always used
in place of coins. A small stick is set up as a
" spid," and a line drawn at a distance of a-
bout 10 feet. At this line the players . take
their stand. The game is open to any number
of phvyers— in fact. the more players the better
the game. Each player tosses his button
at the spid, his object being to come as near it
as possible. He whose button lies nearest the
s?;(rf gathers )the -other buttons in his hands,
shakes them, and finally tosses them in the
air. All which fall face downwards he gath-
ers and keeps ; the remainder are lifted by the
player whose button lay second, and thrown
by him, those falling face upwards being in
tiiru claimed by him. This continues till the
butions have all been gained, the first man of-
ten getting a second throw if the buttons last
so lung. The players all take f heir stand a-
gai'i on the line, the last tosstr of the former
time being the first to play this time, and con-
tinue thrvAving till they have lost all their
buttons, or are otherwise forced to desist.

Siiould the spid be hit fairly by any man
except the first, all buttons, no matter how
near, must be lifted and re-tossed. The ad-
vantages in being first mau consist in the fol-
lowing. The first player may, if he choose, re-
claim his toss by saying, " Cha luigh mi " (I
shall not lie.) but if his toss be good enough,
he says " Luighidh mi," (I will lie,) thus com-
pelling all who follow to "lie," no matter how
poor tbeir attempt may be. If, howeyer, the

first player says "Oha luigh mi," those follow-
ing can all say the same, till such time as
someone remarks *' Luighidh mi," after which
they are all forced to " lie." Another advan-
tage the first man has is.that though he strike
the spid fair he can yet "lie." Still popu-
lar, this was one of the most cherished games
of the young Gael of former times, and many
were the severe thrashings meted out to them
for its sake. A boy departed to school with
perhaps 30 buttons on a string and returned
hom» with none, yea, without one on his
clothes, which were held in place by pieces of
wood or atrinz—Uiit Garnet in C«ltic Review,
Vol. IV [Called an " Uist " game in above,
but it 13 in reality %3 much an English as an
Uist one.]

spiol,.'!. m.Wool from a dead sheep, pluck. A skin
of this S'lrc (marbhchann) is often washed first
in the Strong lye in which clothes have been
steeped for the wash. It is washed in each
lather as the clothes are taken out, and after
rinsing, hung on a pailing to drip and nearly
dry When a skin is sufficiently dry to bo
plucked, it is placed on the back of a chair
near the fire— the warmth makes the pluck-
ing easier— with a cleancreel underneath into
which the tufts of wool fall as they are pluck-
ed. The cutch. or coarse wool, remains on
the skin, if the fingers are deft enough. The
wool is then either teazed for carding, or dyed
should it be needed for mixtures. This kind
of wool is not generally considered so excel-
lent as that shorn from the sheep, but serves
admirably for tweeds, or for dyeing and mix-
ing with the better quality of wool in common
use—K.W.G. m Mod prize paper.

•without tasting food; which if duly persisted
in, summoned a legion of devils, in the guise
of black cats.with their master at their head,
all PcreechiBg in a way terrifying to any per-
8on of ordinary nerves.— NG P. " The div-
ination by the t. was once a noted supersti-
tion among the Gael, and in the northern
parts of the Lowlands of Scotland. When any
important question concerning futurity arose,
and of which a solution was, by all means,
desirable, some shrewder person than his
neighbours was pitched upon, to perform the

{)art of a prophet. This person was wrapped
n the warm smoking hide of a newly-slain ox
or cow, commonly an ox, and laid at full
length in the wildest recess of some lonely wa-
terfall. The question was then put to him,
and the oracle was left in solitude to consider
it. Here he lay for some hours with his cloak
of knowledge around him, and over his head,
' no doubt, to see the better into futurity ;
deafened by the incessant roaring of the tor-
rent ; every sense assailed ; his body steam-
ing ; his fancy in a ferment ; and whatever
notion had found its way into his mind from
so many sources of prophecy, it was firmly V)e-
lieved to have been communicated by invisible
beings who were supposed to haunt such soli-
tudes."— •*

ject is seen in the morning, it will be accom-
plished in the afternoon ; if at noon, on that
very day ; if in the evening, that very night ;
and if after candles are lit, on that night for
certain. If a shroud is seen about a person,
it foretells approaching death; and the time
of it is more or less distant, according to the
height at which the shroud is observed on the
body. If it be seen about the middle, death
is not expected within a twelvemonth ; if as
high as the head, it is not many hours distant.
To see a spark of fire falling on one's arm,
foretells that a dead child shall be seen in the
arms of that person. To see a chair empty at
at the time a person sits in it, is a sure sign
of approaching death to that person. Seers
did not observe supernatural appearances at
the same time, though they might happen to
be in the same apartment ; but when one of
them who saw a vision, touched any number
of his brethren, they all saw it as well as the
first.

The following are three instances recorded
by an English nobleman in the 17th. century,
who, previous to his going to the Highlands,
was vne of the sturdiest unbelievers in the
second-sight.

1. " In the year 1652 I was travelling in the
Bi^hlaiids, and a good number of servants
with me, as is usual there. One of them go-
ing a little before me, entering into a house
where I was to stay all night, and going hast-
ily to the door, he suddenly stepped back with
a screech, and did fall by a stone which hit
bis foot. I asked what was the matter, for
he seemed to be very much frighted. He told
me very seriously that I should not lodge in
that house, because shortly a dead body in
a coffin would be carri* d out of it, for many
were carrying it when he was heard to cry.
I neglecting his words, and staying tiiere, he
said to the other servants he was sorry for it,
end that what he saw would surely come to
pass. Though no sick person was then there,
yet the landlord died of an apoplectic fit be-
fore I left the house."

2 " In Jannary, 1652, Lieut. -Col. Alexander
Muuro, and I, were in the bouse of one Wm.
MacLeod, of Ferinlea, in the county of Ross.
He, the landlord, and I, were sitting on. three
chairs near the fire ; and in the corner of the

► great chimney were two islanders, who were
that very night come to the bouse, and were
related to the landlord. While one of them
was talking to Munro, I noticed the other
looking oddly towards me. From his look,
and his being an islander, I supposed him to
^ be a seer, and asked him what he stared at.
He answered me by desiriug me to rise from
the chair, for it was an unlucky one. I asked
him why. He answered me, because there
was a dead man in the chair next to me.
Well, said I, if he be in the chair next to me,
I may keep my own. But what is the likeness
of the man F Ho said he was a tall man with
a loHii grey coat, booted, and one of his legs
hangini; over the arm of the chair, and his
head hanging dead on the other side, and his
arm backward, as if it were broken. There
were some English troops then quartered
near that place, and there being at that time
a great frost after a thaw, the country was
co\ereil all over with ice. Four or five of the
English riding by this house some two hours
after the vision, while we were sitting by the

I fire, we heard a great noise, which proved to
be those troopers, with the help of other ser-

vants, carrying in one of their number, who
had had a very bad fall, and had his arm
broken ; and falling frequently into fits, they
brought him into the hall, and set him on the
very chair, and in the very posture that the
seer prophesied. The man did not die, thougli
he recovered with great difficulty."

3 " Among the accounts given me by Sir
Norman MacLeod, there was one worthy of
special notice— There was a gentleman in the
Isle of Harris, who was always seen by the
seers with an arrow in his thigh. Such in the
isle who thought these prognostications infall-
ible, did not doubt but he would be shot in
the thigh before he died. Sir Norman told
me that he heard it the subject of their dis-
course for many years. At last he died with-
out any such accident. Sir Norman was at
his burial at St. Clement's Church in Harris.
At the same time the corpse of another gen*
tleman was brought to be buried in the very
same church. The friends on either side came
to debate who should first enter the church,
and in a trice from words they came to blows.
One of the number, who was armed with a bow
and arrows, let one fly among them. (Now
every family in that isle have their burial
place in the church in stone chests, and the
bodies are carried in open biers to the burial-
place.) Sir Norman having appeased the tu-
mult, one of the arrows was found shot in the
dead man's thigh. To this Sir Norman was a
witness." —Succinct accompt of my Lord Tar*
bolt's Relations, in a L.-tUr to the Hon. Robert
Boyle, Esquire, of ihe Predictions ma<ie by
seers, whereof himself ic as Ear and Eye-witnets,
By pretension to secoml sight, no profit was
ever sought or gained. It is an involuntary
affection, in which neither hope nor fear are
known to have any part. Those who profess
to feel it do not boast of it as a privilege,
nor are considered by others to be advantage-
ously distinguished. They have no tempta-
tion to feign and their hearers have no mo-
tives to t ncourage an imposture.

Armstrong concludes his account with a
lengthy description of the theories of Dr,
Beattie of Aberdeen and the celebrated Dr,
Samuel Johnson, but as they are only theories
they have been omitted here.

_W8 feeinne

The teln'-èigin was considered an antidote
against the plague and murrain and all infect-
ious diseasos among cattle. Dr. Martin SUV'S
all the fires i<i the parish were extinguished
and 81 married men, being <leemed th« pro-
per number for effecting tliis puipose,to.'k two
planks of wood and nine of them wore employ-
ed by turns, who by their repeated efforts,
rubbed the planks agaiust each other, till the
heat thereof produced fire, and from this forc-
ed fire each family was 8upplie<l with a new
fire. No sooner was the fire kindled than a
pot fille<l with water was put thereon, wiiich
was afterwards sprinkled on people who had
the plague.or on cattle that had the murrain,
and this process wa.s said to be followed inya-
riably by succ««.i.— **

A term applied to fire produced by friction —
in olden times a m*'ans employed to check
evils arisi.ig from b-MBg bawitched. If a
household suffei-ed loss such as indicated
being under evil influence, all fires in the
district between two running streams were
extinguished on a set day. Then a spinning-
wheel was pat in motion, aod kept going fur-
iously until the spindle became heated. Tin-
der or t-ow was aj^lied to the hot spindle, fire
was thus procured .arni distributed to all
households affi»»cted by evil inflo«i>ces. With-
in the m«mory of persouK sMll living, fire was
thus procured to rfieck witchcraft in a town-
ship in Uist where some si ^ness, supposed to
be evil eyj, carried off gooae cows and sheep.
It Is odd that nHth«r cow nor sheep died i5-
ter, possibly the epidemic had exhaneted it-
self.-DC.

».a^ThÌ3 vorb has two other forms for the
pa-it subjunctive, which are used after inter-
roe: itive ami negative particles. Tiiey are,
(an P nach ?)toirinn, tvould 1 (not) giv-' ; cha
toirinn, / tvould net give ; and (na'u) tu ,
ainn, (if) 1 would give. These two forms afo
conjugated as bheirinn, in the various persons
^(sing. 1st. -inn, 2nd. -eadh, 3rd. -eadh ;pl.
1st. -earaaid, 2nd. -eadh, 3rd. -eadh.)

The past fiubj. passive, bheirteadh, is im-
personal,and requires a prepositional pronoun
after it to distinguish it from the same tense
of beir. Bheirteadh:mi, 1 was lorn; bheirteadh
dhomh, (it) was given to me. The passive
voice has parallel impersonal forms, as an
toirteadh, tvould (it) be given, and an tu^j-
ti»,dh, ma theirteadh, if it would be said, but,
na'n abairteadh ; o 'n chiteadh, since it would
be seen ; but, nach faicteadh, tvould it not
be seen; g'ed gheibhteadh, though it should be
got ; but, mur faighteadh e, ij it should not be

among Scotsmen, especially
Gaelic-speakers and their descendants of any
paper

All Scotsmen, at Home and Abroad, should
patronize this patriotic publication, and it is a
necessity to all who have friends in Australasia,
being the only medium through which reliable
accounts of all purely Scottish events can be
obtained. , Many of the new Scottish Societies
formed in the Commonwealth owe their existence,
in some means, to this paper, which forms such
an excellent medium for exchange of news and
opinions among Scotsmen. News relating to

Scotsmen and Scottish Societies is always welcome
to the Editor, as well as the names of new sub-
scribers. The more news and subscribers we
receive, the better the value you will get for your
money.

The Druids gathered the mistletoe ou 10th.
Pliny, in the 16th. book of his Nat. Hist., saya
*' The Druids hold nothing in such sacred re-
•pcct as the miatletoe, and the tree ou which
it grows, provided it be an oak. They select
certain wood^ of oak, and tliey do not pwrform
any «acred rite without the leaf of that tree ;
ao that hence it is likely they have been call-
ed Druids, explaining the name from the
Greek drus, an oak ; Druidaa, oakiUs. What-
ever grows on that Irce, more than its natural
growth, they think has been sent from heaven,
«nd is a proof that the tree has beeu chosen
by God himself. HoweTer that [species of
mistletoe] is very rarely found, and when
found it is sought after with great derotion,
and especially at the sixth moon, which is the
bej^inning of their months and years, and
when the tre« hsks passed its thirtieth year,
because it has already abundaut vigour,
though not half-grown. They call it by a
word signifying in their own language, " all-
heal " ; and harÌBg prepared sacrifices and
fea-sts un«ler the tree, they bring up two
white bulla, whose honw are then first bound;
the priest in a white robe ascMids the tree,
aad cuts it off with a goiden knife ; it is recei-
ved in a white ^Mek. 'ttien, and not till then,
they sacrifiee t^ victims, i»aying that God
would remler his gift pro«pi»ous to thoM on
whom he had bei^^wed it. When mistletoe
is given as a potion, they are of opinion that
it can remove animal b«rre&n«ss, and that it
i« a remedy agaioat all poisons,

The ùruisg had the qualities of man and
spirit curiously commingled. He had a pecu-
liar fondness for solitude at certain seasons
of the year. About the end of harvest he be-
came more sociable, and hovered about farm-
yards, stables and cattle-houses. He had a
particular fondness for the products of the
dairy, and was a fearful intruder on milk-
maids, who made regular libations of milk or
cream to charm him off, or to procure his fa-
vour. He could be seen only by those who had
the second sight; yet I have heard of instances
•where he made liimselC visible to persons not
80 gifted. He is said to have been a jolly per-
sonable being, with a broad blue bonnet,
flowing yellow hair,aiid a long walking-staff.
Every manor-house had its firuis.', aud in the
kitchen, close by the fire, was a seat which
was left unoccupied for liim. The house of a
proprietor on ihe banks of the Tay is, even to
this day, believed to have been haunted by
this «1 rite, and a particular apartment there-
in has been for centuries called Seòmar Bhrùn-
aidh ( l>rounie'9 room. ) When irritated
through neglect or disrespectful treatment,
he would not hesitate to become wantonly
mischievous. He was notwithstanding, ra-
ther gainly and good-natured than formid-
able. Though, on the whol<^, a Iazy,loungIng
hobgnblin, he would often bestir himself on
behalf of those who understood his humours,
and suited themselves thereto. When in this
mood, he was known to perform many ardu-
ous exploits in kitchen, barn and .stable, with
marvellous precision and rapidity. These kind
turns were done without bribe, fee or reward,
for the offer of any one of these would banish
him for ever. Kind treatment was all that
he wished for, and it never failed to procure
hi.s favour. In the northern parts of Scot-
land the ùruisg'g disposition was more mer-
cenary. Brand, in his tlescription of Zetland,
observes, " that not above forty or fifty years
ago almost every family had a brownie, or
evil spirit; so called, which served them, to
which they gave a sacrifice for his service ;
as when they churned their milk, they took
a part thereof, and sprinkled every^corner of
the house with it for Brownie's use ;' likewise,
when they brewed, they had a stone which
they called Brownie's stane, wherein there
was a little hole, into which they poured some
wort for a sacrifice to Brownie. They also had

casions they commonly selected for their ren-
dezvous the rocky recoases of some remote
torrent, whence their loud voices, nimgUiiK
with the water's roar, carried to the ears of
wondering superstition detached parts of
their unearthly colloquies. In a certain dis-
trict of the Highlands, Peallaidh an spùit,
Slochdaill a' chùirt, and Brùnaidb an easain,

It must be borne in naind that Gaelic snr-
names, in the Engrlish sen-ie, are not general-
ly in use, at least in colloquial Gaelic, except
when ai>eakina; of strangers. Every one liv-
ingr in a Gaelic-speaking district has a local
name describiug his trade or some physical
peculiarity as, Donnachadh reamhar, An saor,
4c, Sometimes they are named after the place
thoy lived in last, or vpere born in, as, An
t-Americanach, &c. If the person named is
of a family long settled in the district he will
probably be named after his father or grand-
father, aa Seumas a' phiobair, (the piper's
Jftiftea.) Where a person's mother is a native
married to an outsider, he may be called after
her, as Domhnall Ciorstan. Thus a Gaelic
student whose friend is plain John MacDon-
ald in the city, must not be surprised when
he meets him at home, to hear his compan-
ions speak of him as, Iain Mhurcheudh
Dhomhnuill Alas*lafr 1 ITie s«l« object of
Gaelic surnames is to make the identity of the
person spoken of as clear as possible throug-h
the speaker reminding ■bis hearers by mean s of
his name every time it is ueetiOBOd, to whom
or where h« " belongs."

Considerable care must be exercised in trans-
lating Enplish surnames into Gafelic, for exam-
ge, Donald Black is DomhRall Mac a' Ghille
huibh. The literal transfatioB, Domhnall
Dubh, may, if used, prove very mid«ading, for
ttiat is much more likely to be the local appel-
Stion of Donald Cameron or Donald Swith, both
<rf whom have dark hair, than of Doiinld Black
who may even b« fair and locally known as
Domhnail Ban, but more probably as Domh-
nall Alasdair or Domhnall Iain. Domhnall
Dubh is also ft familiar Gaelic name for the
devil I

The following list of names is the result of
the conipil'^r'H colhtting from all available
sources from 1S80 to 1911. The names are not
inserted here with the idea of setting forth any
new theory regarding the correct form of any
Gaelic name, but it is merely an attempt to
gather into one alphabetical lint, from all the
newspapers, magazines, books, &c. in which
they have app)eared, the most up-to-date forms
used by the best Gaelic scholars. A few of
the names have been taken down orally by the
compiler, but, owing to the authorities for the
remainder not having been noted as the list
was collected, it is impossible to five here the
source whence each was obtained. The ab-
sence of such a list from all other Gaelic dic-
tionaries is a cause of continual disappointment
to Gaelic students. Much pains has been taken
to secure accuracy, and Dr. W. J. Wateon,
Edinburgh, has kindly revised and added to
the list. Dr. Watson's additions are marked •,
and are original Gaelic forms taken from the
mouths of the people— not Gatlic translations
of Anglicized forms. Quotations from the Ord-
nance Survey Maps, are marked OSM.

The list may be added to in any Gaelic-
speaking district, but care must be taken to
spell the names exactly as they sound, and not
according U> what either the collector or native
informant thiiik they meuii.

As quibe 20 Gaelic students require the
Gaelic form of an English name to every one
who requires the English form of a Gaelic one,
the Enjflish forms are here placed first.

came weary of life, and in battle he threw
himself, unarmed into the midst of the enemy,
and was shun.

Comhal or Cumhal, the father of I'ingal. The
accounts of his achievements which have
come down to us are but scanty. Hi;, life was

tribe of Morni.

Coiian, the Thersites of the Fingalians. Ossian
and UUin never mention him but with con-
tempt.

Goiiar, one of the kings of Ireland. He was

great grandfather of Fingal. It was owing

hero was involved in so many Irish wars.

mhal, the father of iingal, in his last battle
with the sons of Murui.

Craca, one of the Shetland Isles.

Cridli-min, the second wife of Dargo. Her pre-
mature and suddeu death was occasioned by

ted by UUin, in his pathetic poem, Dan au
Deirg.

king of Ireland, as well as the management of
the war against Swaran, king of Scandinavia.

: His amazing strength is still proverbial among

Deud-gheal, the adulterous wife of Cairbre. On
separating from her first husban<l she recei-
ved one half of his goods, of which, at
Cairbre's request, a fair division had been
madeby Cuchullin. She afterwards became
the wife of Feaird.the son of Amun, but being
incensed against Cnchuliin, on account of an
imagined unfairness in the division of Cairbre's
property, she instigated her husband to a sin-
gle combat with him, in which Feaird was
slain.

his bravery might win her heart. She begged
to get his sword still covered with Cathbaid's
blood, and plunged it into Cathbaid's breast.
In the agonies of death he prayed her to ex-
tract the weapon. She no sooner did so, than,
with a dying effort, he buried it in her bosom.

Dribh-mhic-Roinnt, son of Stairnmor. He was a
brave warrior, but the poems which give de-
tails of his exploits are extinct. He was one
of the heroes who attended Cumhal, the fa-
ther of Fingal, in his last battle against the
sons of Morni. He lived in the north-east of
Caithness.

cended Fergus, son of Ere or Arcatn, who in
styled, in Scottish annals, Fergus II. This

ter the death of Ossian, that is, about the be-
ginning of the fourth century. His genealogy

Fergus mac Arcaith, mhic Chongail, mhic
Fbearghais, mhic Fhionn^hail nam buadh,
Fergus the son of Arcath, the son of
Congal, the son of Fergus, the son of Finjal
the Victorious.

Ferait-Artho, son of Cairbre" Mac Cormac, king
of Ireland, by Baltanno, daughter of Cona-
char of Ulliu.

Fingal, king of the Caledonians, the hero of
one of the most splendid epic poems in any
language. He was the son of Cumhal and
Morna the daughter of Thaddu. He was the
father of Ossian, and his grandfather was
Trathuil, the son of Treunmor.

Fideallan, the first king of Innistore.

FUlHin, the son of Fingal and Clatho. He lost

of Clatho, " to distinguish him from the sons
which Fiugal had by Roscrana.

quarians, settled in the South of Ireland.

clan for some time, and disputed the super-
iority with Fingal himself. He was at length
worsted and brought to submission. After
this be became the most faithful friend and
ally of Fingal. He was ardently fond of a
warrior's reputation, and sometimes, in the
absence of the Caledonian chief, he was en-
trusted with the command of the Fiugaliaa
forces, but his valour was too impetuous for
conducting an army. He owed his death to
the following circumstance. A party of Fin-
galians, having gone to plunder tiie hostile isle
of Ifreòine, were followed, some short time
after, by Gaul, without any attendants. He
landed on the island after his friends had
pillaged and left it. He was surrounded by
the exasperated inhabitants, against whom,
with his back to a tree, he maintained a des-
perate conflict, until, amazed at his valour,
and afraid of his strength, they rolled a mass
of rock down upon him which broke his thigh.
He thus becama incapable of further resist-
ance, and fell a sacrifice to bis enemies.

mortal, and that Fingal only used it in cases
of pressing danger.

Malmhtn (Malvina) the daughter of Toscar. She
was the mistress of Oscar, the son of Ossian.

Manns, king of Scandinavia. He iuvaded the do-
minions of Fingal, and, in a personal encount-
er with that hero, was worsted, disarmed and
bound. He regained his liberty on condition
that he would either renew the general enga-
gement, or leave the land as a vanquished foe,
lie embraced the latter condition with grati
tude. and embarked, after swearing that he
would never re-invade the country of his con-
queror. After setting sail, his men, stung

attended his father in most of his wars in
Ireland, aud succeeded him in the command
of the army. At an advanced age he lost his
sight, and became of course unfit for the busi-
ness of tlie field. He cheered his misfortune
and his solitude by celebrating the exploits
of other,; warriors— the subject of which his
poems principally treat. The companion of
his misfortune and solitude was Malvina, the
amiable widow of his son Oscar. It is pro-
bable that it is to this female.who committed

As the length of above list may induce thoughtless
persons to think that T am ^^ making a good thing " out
of the publication of this Dictionary (and in fact such a
happy state of things has been hinted to me several times)
I feel that some explanation is due from me.

Quite another two pages could be filled with the
names of those who have only paid a small proportion
of their subscriptions, or who have paid nothing at all,
in spite of many urgent applications for payment. I
fixed the price of the parts at 6|d. each, post free, being
the actual cost of materials used, not including repairs to
machinery, &c., working hard all the best years of my life for
lenefit of Gaelic students quite free of charge. Many
complained that they could not pay so much as 6|d. a
part, which represented the enormous sum of l|d. per
month ! why any ordinary individual spends more than
that in matches or ink. On making an extract of the
amount of unpaid subscriptions at time of going to press,
I was dismayed to find it reached a total of £72, \s, Sd,

I think I have made it plain now that it is the
Gaelic-reading public who have " made a good thing'' of
this Gaelic Dictionary, and not

Gaelic-speakers and their descendants of any
paper

All Scotsmen, at Home and Abroad, should
patronize this patriotic publication, and it is a
necessity to all who have friends in Australasia,
being the only medium through which reliable
accounts of all purely Scottish events can be
obtained. Many of the new Scottish Societies
formed in the Commonwealth owe their existence,
in some means, to this paper, which forms such
an excellent medium for exchange of news and
opinions among Scotsmen. News relating to
Scotsmen and Scottish Societies is always welcome
to tbe Editor, as well as the names of new sub-
scribers. The more news and subscribers we
receive, the better the value you will get for your
money.
